  8. Re:But can it *replace* sleep? on Snortable Drug 'Replaces' Sleep For Monkeys In Trials · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The way I always see it is like this:
    Our human body's through evolution have become very advanced and have developed some fantastic biological systems. If we consider that we sleep for a 3rd of our 24hours day and this is the best that evolution can do for us then there are obviously some very important processes/actions that happen when we're sleeping. If sleep wasn't such an important factor then us as animals would have surely evolved enough to not need sleep, with no sleep we would have more time to follow the necessities of life, survival, eating drinking, (and if your lucky enough) Reproduction!

  10. Re:Question about platform security on Inside a Modern Malware Distribution System · · Score: 1

    I don't think it has much at all to do with what OS is being used but purely the user.

    The mass majority of people using *nix are clued up about virus, malware etc... thus there is alot less chance of them installing the crap.

    There are a much higher proportion of people using windows that don't know what they're doing, the majority of people know this so target the weak majority.
    Any windows lovers out there please dont think im slagging windows off, im just simply stating the well known fact that there are more clueless users out there that happen to be using windows.

    I can't believe the first post actually thinks that cisco routers are worthless, what the hell does he think is on the other end of his internet circuit? A linksys router? Cisco routers are very very stable, i work for an ISP and we use cisco throughout. We have plenty of 100MB megastream ethernet circuits going into cisco routers and they never seem to fail. What about MPLS, you really think it is possible to implement MPLS over £50-100 routers? GET REAL!!!

    FROM ARTICLE Today, radar-based air traffic control is reliable but makes inefficient use of airspace; widely separated planes fly dogleg jetways (yellow). The GPS-based NextGen system, slated for completion by 2025, will straighten routes (blue) and allow more planes to safely share the skies. Currently, Air Traffic Control Towers (ATCT) guide planes through takeoff, then hand them over to a Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) facility that keeps approach and departure corridors orderly over the next 50 miles. Air traffic then follows jetways under the surveillance of Air Route Traffic Control Centers (ARTCC). TRACON picks up planes on descent, and ATCT takes over for landing. NextGen will provide pilots and ground control crews with identical real-time displays of aircraft positions, enabling pilots to reduce congestion by choosing more efficient routes and separation distances.
